I thought they had actual film showing an Iranian ship getting to the torpedoed ship to remove an unexploded landmine.

Look at Reuters....they refuse to blame the culprit and again make it seem like Trump is the aggressor.

I f-ing loathe the mainstream, Commie, lying media.

Not our ships.

It's a UN matter right now.

The reason I voted for Trump is that he’s smarter than all those experts calling for a military response or war with Iran. Attacking is what Iran’wants us to do because Trump’s sanctions are working and the mullahs cannot bear them. Overt military confrontation changes the political equation to Iran’s advantage. Deny the gambit, and double down on what is apparently working so well.

This wouldn’t be the first time CIA lied to Trump, the NYT had to walk back a story and make a correction 2 months after the truth came out.

Why doesn’
t the Media ask Iran’s best bud John Kerry what really happened? Hell he was more than likely in on the planning of this attack.

"U.S. President Donald Trump blamed Iran..."

Good! That's it... End of our business... Now let the Saudi or chicoms (or whoever else was going to get the oil) take care of the problem... As long as the tankers are not "true" American ships with American crews, it is none of our dang business!

Can someone shed light on the question of how a magnetic mine is stuck to a ships hull above the water line?

Did a boat pull up along side and stick it there? If so why?...I mean that is not what one would do to sink it.

Not our circus, not our monkeys. These vessels were Japanese and Norwegian. Let them attack Iran. Unless our vessels or assets are attacked, we should stay out.

That doesn’t say that we shouldn’t have a few trolling missions ongoing, however...

But, of course, the Iranian mullahs leading crowds in chanting "Death to America" doesn't spark fears of a confrontation.

Thanks Reuters for letting us know on who's side you are on...
